The learning method

Learn a name you can recall outdoors.

Meet a species through varied examples. Try to name it from memory. Return at the right time to make the name last.

Introduction

First, meet the species.

You see its name with four photos. Comparing different angles, settings, and individuals helps you learn the species instead of memorizing one picture.

Recall

Then, name it from memory.

A later prompt shows the photos without the answer. Recall the name in your head or type it, then reveal the answer.

Correction

Record what you remembered.

Choose Got it if you knew the name before reveal. Choose Again if you did not. Either answer helps schedule the next review.

Return

Review before the name fades.

The schedule adapts to each kind of recall. A name that is difficult returns sooner. A name that is holding returns after a longer interval.

What Study measures

Study builds recall from the photos and sounds you practise with. It prepares you to notice more outdoors, but it is not a safety guide or proof of field-identification skill.

Your answers, review history, schedule, and difficult items are private. Public projects show what you chose to learn.
